If the amp is not powered for a very long time the capacitors in the output circuits can dry out and then they have to be replaced. I had my 7125 stored in its original packaging for almost three years with no problems. I would expect no issues if you stored it for a year but since it is a pre-owned unit you should put it in your system for a bit just to check it out. I would expect Outlaw to have the Phoenix out before a year but I have thought that before.
